It's always varied alot from lot to lot. Some lots are terrible with lots of duds and squibs and some lots ain't too bad. I bought two bricks of it last summer when .22 ammo was almost impossible to find. Shot one brick of it so far and only had two duds out of the whole brick. It was also pretty accurate for cheap plinking ammo and would consistently group 5 shots under 3/4" at 50 yards from a couple of my rifles.
